Holiday Hiatus

Due to church events and my schedule, we will be taking a break from basketball until January.  Check back here to see our playing status in the new year.  Merry Christmas!  -Ed

December 6

According to the church calendar, we have the floor this Sunday night.  We are planning on playing ball as scheduled at 7:00 p.m. The Christmas production will have just completed the night before so I am nervously expecting something to interfere with us playing (decorations, backdrops, etc.) Check back here before you head to the gym Sunday night.  But please come out! This is going to be our last run of the year!!

November 29

Well, I'd like to say we're playing this week so we could burn off some of those Thanksgiving calories but unfortunately the music ministry is going to start preparing for their Christmas program (wait....not that that's a bad thing. Lol!). I hope we will play next week.  I'll let you know. -Ed

November 22

We will be playing basketball this Sunday night at 7:00 p.m.  We had a sparse showing of people this past week but should get a few back playing this week.  Our games were good last Sunday but we could have used a few more players.  We will have limited gym availability these next two months so come out and run with us while you can.  -Ed

October 11

I'm back in the States!  We are going to be playing basketball this Sunday night at 7:00 p.m.  I just found out that the race got changed to Sunday at 12:30 p.m. This could make traffic bad around the time we plan on playing. I'm not cancelling though. Give yourself extra time to get there. Looking forward to seeing everyone.  -Ed

June 28

Sorry, guys.  We will be off again this week.  Stay tuned!

Sunday, June 14, 2015

June 21

We will not be playing ball this week. Great turnout again this past week.  Too many guys showing up is a good problem to have.
I'm very thankful I got to resume playing this past Sunday.  I still have a ways to go before I am 100% but this week's run was really encouraging for me.  Very blessed.  -Ed

June 14

The plan is to play basketball at 6:00 p.m. this Sunday.  We have had big turnouts the last two weeks. Kind of hard to believe we could barely scratch up a 3-on-3 game a month or so ago.  But that's the way it goes, ebbs and flows.  What's really scary is that many of our regulars have not been playing the last two weeks (that's including me!).  If everyone decides to show up in a given week, well, I'm not sure what we'll do!  Glad to see some new faces though.  Please keep coming out.  We'll try to accommodate everyone that shows up. I used to toy with the idea of locking the doors after the 15th player showed up but I just can't bring myself to do it.  I would ask that everyone please get there promptly by 6:00 p.m. so we can get started and get as many games in as we can.  And anyone that wants to come a little early to help me set up, I will really appreciate it.  See ya Sunday!!  -Ed

June 7 - New start time

Okay! We will be playing ball this week at 6:00 p.m.  This will be our new start time for this summer.  It helps to let me know if you are playing.  If for some reason I get a lot of guys who tell me they can't play, I may cancel.  And that announcement probably won't come until Sunday afternoon so always check back here for our playing status.  Also, if you have time and are willing, please come a little bit before six to help me set up. Thanks.

Most of you know I seriously injured my ankle and have not been playing.  I am currently receiving physical therapy and have no timetable to resume playing.  It's hard for me to organize this event weekly and not participate but I owe a lot to my faithful friends who play weekly so I will do what I can to keep this going.  -Ed

May 31

Looks like we'll be playing again this week but we will be back to our normal time of 7:00 p.m.  It would help to let me know if you plan on playing.  I'm still in recovery mode from my injury but I am getting better.  I won't be playing.  If you have the time, come a few minutes early to help me set up.  Thanks. -Ed

May 24 and Updates

Game on! We will be playing ball this Sunday at a special earlier time of 6:00 p.m. Please show up a little early to help set up if you can.

Shout out to Jamil and his wife, Michelle, on the birth of their new child, JJ.  

Just an update: two weeks ago I suffered a significant ankle injury.  A visit to my sports physician revealed that although not broken, I have several stressed and strained areas as well as a grade 3 bone bruise. I am in a bit of constant discomfort.  I will begin some physical therapy this week on my road to recovery.  But, obviously, I will not be ballin' anytime soon.  My goal is to get healthy and strong enough to participate in a major cycling ride in July as well as prepare myself for our backpacking trip abroad in France in August/September.  So although I may put myself on the shelf for playing basketball this summer, I will still organize a weekly run as often as I can. -Ed
